Avoid undefined behavior in extract_integer
-fsanitize=undefined showed that extract_integer could left-shift a negative value, which is undefined. This patch fixes the problem by doing all the work in an unsigned type. This relies on implementation-defined behavior, but I tend to think we are on safe ground there. (Also, if need be, violations of this could probably be detected, either by configure or by a static_assert.) gdb/ChangeLog 2018-10-03 Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com> * findvar.c (extract_integer): Do work in an unsigned type.
